How to Build an AI Document Chatbot in 10 Minutes

Integrating Chat GPT with Company Data

In this section, the speaker introduces Flowwise, a visual UI Builder that allows for the integration of chat GPT with company data. The speaker explains that they will demonstrate how to set it up and build a conversational AI that can answer questions about your own data.

Introduction to Flowwise

  • Flowwise is an open-source visual UI Builder that enables the building of large language model apps.
  • It can be downloaded from the GitHub repository and easily set up locally.
  • The visual Builder allows for connecting building blocks together to create simple apps.

Benefits of Flowwise

  • Under the hood, Flowwise utilizes Lang Chain, which is powerful in spinning up large language model apps.
  • With Flowwise's visual Builder, it becomes quick and easy to prototype and test large language model apps.
  • The capability to scale from these prototypes makes it highly advantageous.

Requirements

  • To follow along with the tutorial, you need an OpenAI API key (free but requires credit card information) and a Pinecone API key (free without credit card requirement).

Setting Up Flowwise

  1. Visit the Flowwise GitHub repository and clone it to your project directory using Git.
  1. Install either npm or Docker (both tools are free).
  1. If using Docker, rename the .env.example file in the cloned repository to .env and specify a port number if needed.
  1. Start up the application by running docker-compose up -d inside the Docker folder of the project.

Using NPM or Docker for Setup

This section provides instructions on setting up Flowwise using either npm or Docker.

Setting Up with NPM

  • Ensure npm is installed on your system.
  • Follow the provided tutorial to install npm.
  • Use the npm command to start Flowwise.

Setting Up with Docker

  • Install Docker from docker.com (link provided).
  • Open the Docker app after installation.
  • Rename the .env.example file in the cloned repository to .env.
  • Specify a port number in the .env file if needed.
  • Run docker-compose up -d inside the Docker folder of the project to start Flowwise.

Starting Flowwise Application

This section explains how to start up the Flowwise application using Docker.

Starting Flowwise with Docker

  1. Navigate to the top-level directory of your project in the terminal.
  1. Change directory into flowwise/Docker.
  1. Ensure you are in the correct folder by running ls and confirming that docker-compose.yaml is visible.
  1. Run docker-compose up -d to spin up containers and start a local server for Flowwise.

The steps may vary slightly on Windows, but overall, configuring your terminal to be in the correct folder should be similar.

Building a Conversational Retrieval QA Chain

In this section, the speaker explains how to build a conversational retrieval QA chain from scratch using a template provided in the marketplace.

Setting Up the Template

  • The speaker selects a template from the marketplace that serves as a starting point for building the conversational retrieval QA chain.
  • The template already includes a flow, and all that needs to be done is filling in parameters and API keys.

Configuring Components

  • The text splitter component is used to chunk documents without surpassing token limits. A TXT file can be uploaded for this purpose.
  • Two OpenAI blocks are included, one for chat and one for embeddings conversion. OpenAI API key needs to be filled in.
  • Pinecone configuration is required by copying and pasting the Pinecone API key and selecting an environment and index name.

Uploading Data

  • A TXT file containing data is uploaded, which will be used by the chatbot to answer questions about it.

Testing the Chatbot

  • The chat interface is opened, allowing users to ask questions about the uploaded document. Example question asked is "What is this doc about?" with an accurate response generated by the chatbot.

Exploring Document Loaders in Flowwise

This section focuses on exploring different document loaders available in Flowwise.

Document Loaders in Flowwise

  • Flowwise provides various document loaders, including CSV, DOCX, GDoc, JSON, Notion, and PDF. These loaders allow easy swapping of different file types for processing.
  • The speaker demonstrates how to switch from a TXT file to a PDF file by deleting the existing loader and adding the PDF loader instead.

Conclusion

The transcript covers the process of building a conversational retrieval QA chain using a template in the marketplace. It explains how to configure components such as text splitter, OpenAI blocks, and Pinecone. Additionally, it explores different document loaders available in Flowwise for processing various file types.
